Salute to Business of the Month has Northern Savings battling online spoofing incident


The annual Business of the Month program from Prince Rupert based Northern Savings saluted the Terrace area retail service Skeena Valley Meats, the popular store in Terrace having recently moved into a new location.

As part of the Northern Savings program, a 50 dollar gift card was part of the recognition program.

However, while Northern Savings was celebrating a regional business, online spoofers were using that try to imitate the financial service's website, an issue that officials addressed today.

Northern Savings did not specify how far the spoofers progressed before the issue was taken care of, though the incident has resulted in the Business of the Month item to be removed for the moment.

The Gift card program will go ahead, with the winners to be contacted by Northern Savings.
